- traditional - fixed identity - mysterious - colourful

- critical opinion on social & political issues - individual - youth culture - energy

- multicultural - upcoming - openminded - creative

Kernwaarden die in me opkomen: - Ritme (Ska is ritme... de flats in de bijlmer geven een ritme en de monniken in nepal leven volgens een bepaald ritme... iets met ritme... the rythm of life) - Toewijding

Zinnen die in me opkomen: - Allen hebben een sterke identiteit - Een bepaalde boodschap willen uitstralen/overbrengen.

- Het in een bepaalde vorm aan de buitenwereld laten zien - Positiviteit, de schoonheid van de wereld inzien; een creatieve boodschap uitzenden.

- Bepaalde symboliek in de ‘mustang nepal en ska music’, deze heeft de bijlmer niet??? Deze herkenningspunten zijn belangrijk in beide vomen.

MUSTANG, NEPAL.

SKA, MUSIC.

- Resistant against cultural destruction - Traditional - Festive, religious and spiritual - Early Buddhism faith - Using able resources

-

-

Non- traditional style of music (at time of appearance) - Festive and joyful (celebratory music ) - Community values - Uses available inspiration

Making something from nothing - Urban -Innovative - Creative - Alternative -Unconventional -Celebrate/festive - Using what is able

- Stigma

Bijlmer Future Values (2030): - 100% Humane (No animal by products) - Diversity/ Individuality - Longevity - Sustainable and ethically conscious - Positivity/joyful/bright

Middle Section: -Resistant within communities- to not be controlled.

- Embracement of Individuality or Difference.

- Festive and Celebratory Communities.

- Resourcefulness - Expressive Colours

-melting pot, combining Jamaican and Carribean in Ska and combining emmigrants in Bijlmer

-entertainment (architecture,museum in Bijlmer and music SKA)

-something new was created through that (Ska musicwas new back then in 50s, experimenting and Arne Bijlmer was also a new modern porject, both created in 50s)

What I see hitting in the middle of the three circles: - A group being oppressed - A group trying to reconnect with one another - Music, Dance, Colour for an ubeat vibe - Being religious or mindful in some way or form The fight (struggles, ups and downs) to be one. To stand up for yourself but most importantly for your group, your ‘tribe’
